That's what I forgot: lilo.conf specifies the kernel version. IMHO rpm needs to update lilo.conf by doing something like if [ -x /sbin/lilo -a -f /etc/lilo.conf ]; then sed -e 's#/boot.*kernel.*mdk#/boot/kernel-2.2.13-20mdk#' \ < lilo.conf > lilo.conf.new if cmp lilo.conf*; then /sbin/lilo fi fi That way lilo isn't run unless it sees an mdk kernel. (note - you don't want to use above script verbatim, because rpm needs to be smart enough to _only_ do s/old-version/new-version/)

[Cooker] Re: [CHRPM] NAME: kernel VER: 2.2.13 REL: 20mdk
One thing I was wondering -- RedHat has always had the problem where a kernel upgrade via RPM was not complete, ie. I could not do rpm -U kernel*.rpm reboot and get a new kernel. Basically it did not re-run LILO, if I recall correctly, but there may have been other problems too. Does Mandrake have the same problem?

[Cooker] Upgrading 6.1 with cooker components
Hi I was wondering if it is a problem to upgrade 6.1 with cooker rpm's. For example I need to upgrade the pcmcia package as the 3.1.0 version that comes with 6.1 doesn't work with my xircom realport cardbus card. I read on the pcmcia site that there were some bugs with the 3.1.0 release that were fixed by 3.1.1 specifically related to this card. I was also wondering if the release of enlightenment 0.16 was in cooker and able to upgrade the one in 6.1 Chris

Lots of improvements by appearances, including my own VIA updates :) Jeff

For example Sis620 does have support for this feature. PS: upgrade to 2.3.18 or above (NOT 2.3.22) because there were a LOT of optimizations in hard disk acces; ie : boot sequence is 2 or 3 times faster, launching X11 is 2 - 3 times faster too.

Re: [Cooker] Parting to the Alpha

I upgraded to Mandrake's rpm and the environment setting. That worked. I have now been able to compile about 12 of the 15 in this group. Only a few didn't work out. > > The packages included in "Architecture is not included" > > are packages that a specific for intel machine, like > > dosemu and Wine. > wine should have a line > ExclusiveArch: i386 i486 i586 > in its spec file. > The same should be added for dosemu and such. It does. I guess that's what causes the error message. It's not a problem, this stuff is x86 specific... > The alpha version need some alpha-specific ones too; like the emx86 > I think is called allowing to run (most) Linux/i386 programs on Linux/alpha. I've tried it a few years ago on my first alpha (a UDB). Very very slow, but it works... It's not pretty though... getting the Tru64 lib's to run netscape & acrobat is a better idea...

[Cooker] Error on install : Exception Occured....
Hello all, I just tried an install from a cooker.iso image I made from a mirror (mirror updated as of this morning) and chose "Install Custom System" After it got to the part where it says "Reading Package information" I got a page that was something like: --- Exception Occured Traceback(innermost last): File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 218, in ? intf.run(todo,test=test) File "usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/text.py", line 1000, in run rc=apply(step[1](),step[2]) ... a bunch of other lines involving File "usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/*stuff*" ... KeyError:knfsd-clients --- At this point it asked whether to debug or not and when I said not it proceeded to shutdown the system. Any ideas? Thanks, Luke

The same should be added for dosemu and such. The alpha version need some alpha-specific ones too; like the emx86 I think is called allowing to run (most) Linux/i386 programs on Linux/alpha. > The packages in "File_contains_non-printabable_characters" > can probably be compiled, when I install a later version > of RPM. No; it's just a locales definition; if you use the 'C' locale any 8bit char will lead to that message. Using any 8bit locale when compiling will solve it. Maybe rpm could be patched so it won't assume anymore that description messages are in us-ascii only... -- Ki ça vos våye bén, Pablo Saratxaga http://www.ping.be/~pin19314/ PGP Key available, key ID: 0x8F0E4975
